We need cheaper and cleaner forms of energy. More efficient uses of energy.
I do not agree that we "all" need to use less energy overall. Energy use tracks wealth pretty closely, and manufacturing/creating things tends to be energy intensive.
The more cheap clean energy we make available, the more novel uses will be found for it.

Yep that's the dream, but it's not what I have coming out of my wall right now. > Energy use tracks wealth pretty closely, I'm guessing the majority of users on this site are in the 1% globally so it seems reasonable to consider what's produced/manufactured for us and what services like these that we're using > The more cheap clean energy we make available, the more novel uses will be found for it. That will be a brilliant future but it's not the reality today.
